Barb's rifle disappeared after wolf struggle

[EfoDom]

This has never happened to me before. I was behind Quonset garage in Coastal Highway and a wolf attacked me. I clicked fire with Barb's rifle but just a little too late. After the struggle the rifle wasn't in my inventory anymore. I didn't drop it and I couldn't find it anywhere on the ground later. Has this happened to anyone else? Is it possible to get the rifle back?

Have you checked the floor thoroughly incase it's under the snow?   Or meged into the truck or wood piles etc?

I checked the ground and it was nowhere to be seen. I checked under the snow as well. It's so weird.

Well I'd say. It's either a bug or the gun was so badly damaged it just vanished...  What condition was it in?

It was around 90%. I'm also not sure if you can even drop an item after a wolf struggle. I though that only happened with bears. Here's where the struggle happened and where the rifle disappeared.

It is very odd.. I can't say I've heard of it dropping with wolves either...  But it could be a new mechanic?     

Knowing how weird some bugs can be,from personal experience, I'd say check inside too.   It might've glitched through the wall..

Otherwise I'd file a ticket.   

It sucks to lose any weapon so I hope it gets sorted for you.

Yeah, I'll probably have to file a ticket. It just sucks because I was planning to do a long stalker run and now I lose a rifle that only spawns once in the game.

I know how you feel.. I'd be gutted to lose my curators ..   I hope they can fix it for you.

I had vaughns rifle disappear on me, I restarted the game and it was back. Careful though, if you have saved after your loss I'm not sure youll get it back.

Since it was a wolf struggle, it would've auto-saved.
